Phased Array Antennas

An in-depth treatment of array phenomena and all aspects of
phased array analysis and design

Phased Array Antennas, Second Edition is a comprehensive
reference on the vastly evolving field of array antennas. The
Second Edition continues to provide an in-depth evaluation of array
phenomena with a new emphasis on developments that have occurred in
the field over the past decade. The book offers the same detailed
coverage of all practical and theoretical aspects of phased arrays
as the first edition, but it now includes:

* New chapters on array-fed reflector antennas; connected arrays;
and reflect arrays and retrodirective arrays

* Brand-new coverage of artificial magnetic conductors, and Bode
matching limitations

* A clear explanation of the common misunderstanding of scan
element pattern measurement, along with appropriate equations

* In-depth coverage of finite array Gibbsian models, photonic
feeding and time delay, waveguide simulators, and beam
orthogonality

The book is complemented with a multitude of original curves and
tables that illustrate how particular behaviors were derived from
the author's hundreds of programs developed over the past forty
years. Additionally, numerous computer design algorithms and
numerical tips are included throughout the book to help aid in
readers' comprehension. Phased Array Antennas, Second
Edition is an ideal resource for antenna design engineers,
radar engineers, PCS engineers, and communications engineers, or
any professional who works to develop radar and telecommunications
systems. It also serves as a valuable textbook for courses in
phased array design and theory at the upper-undergraduate and
graduate levels.
